Razorbacks coach hunting talent in Istanbul as Hogs go world wide
FAYETTEVILLE, Ark. – Everyone knew having John Calipari as coach at Arkansas would be a different experience, but it's unlikely anyone had looking up top recruits in Istanbul on the bingo card.
However, it turns out there is a database used by the NBA to keep an eye on a handful of basketball players in Turkey for past and future NBA drafts. It's likely that Calipari, a former NBA coach and one who is well connected with league scouting departments, is more than aware of these databases of overseas players.
Narrow that down those who fit the current recruiting window and then to areas in and around Istanbul and the list constricts down to three names. This is where the third possible window into how Calipari identifies overseas players pops up. Also, he doesn't play his game like a forward. He's shows prowess as a catch and shoot three-point threat with range and is able to use his size and the usual European style of movement when attacking the basket to hit short jumpers and lay-ups with his body in awkward positions.
